About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At nightfall, an elderly gentleman named simply ‘the Neighbor’ would often be seen wheeling his shopping cart down aisle seven. One evening, he stopped abruptly near the organic produce section and began whispering something into his cart’s handle. Suddenly, a delivery driver passing by overheard him muttering, ‘Gotta get more kale for the neighborhood council meeting tomorrow.’ The Neighbor then winked at the driver and whispered, ‘Don’t tell anyone, but I’m also picking up some extra avocados for my secret guacamole recipe!’
2. In the early hours of every Sunday morning, a delivery driver could be seen rushing into H-E-B Plus! with a peculiar expression on his face. ‘What’s that smell?’ locals would ask each other, shaking their heads in amusement. As he rushed inside, a neighbor passing by noticed him and asked curiously, 'Hey, what gives? Smells like something's burning!' The driver just shrugged and muttered, 'Probably just another Sunday at H-E-B Plus!'. And with that, he disappeared into the depths of the store, never explaining anything further.
3. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a young mother began noticing something strange in H-E-B Plus! A peculiar lady with a basket full of produce would greet her each morning with a knowing smile and whispered predictions about the day’s events. One morning, she saw an elderly gentleman pushing a cart filled with jars and cans. He nodded knowingly and said, ‘Today will be a good day for canned tomatoes.’ Sure enough, later that afternoon, her favorite brand went on sale. The mother laughed, realizing it was just another friendly H-E-B Plus! regular spreading cheer.
4. At midnight, a cashier noticed a familiar face in the frozen foods aisle. A middle-aged man was carefully arranging packages of H-E-B’s famous enchilada kits, meticulously placing them in alphabetical order. Curious, she approached him and asked why he bothered. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, 'I just want everyone to find their favorite flavor easily.' Turns out, he was a regular customer who loved H-E-B’s enchiladas so much that he’d memorized every variety. The night ended with a smile, as the cashier learned a thing or two from her unexpected teacher.
